changing brake pads
 
I have a 91 mazda b2200, i need new brakes and im putting them on by myself, and my question is after taking off the old brake pads can i squeeze the caliper back without bleeding them, i have done this same procedure with a couple of my other cars, just wondering if i can do it with my mazda. Please let me know.

you never should have to bleed brakes unless you let air into the lines. So as long as you don't crack the brake line you should be able to just press the piston back in with a c-clamp like Mazdaboy2600i said.
